The current page gnu.org/software/emacs, as viewed, starts with the
FSF's funding drive.  That is present only for December and January,
but is very important during these months.

Then comes a vertical segment that introduces the GNU operating
system.  It also has the buttons for joining the FSF and signing up to
Free Software Supporter.  Encouraging these is very important.  Then
comes a horizontal menu for gnu.org.

These items give some uniformity to gnu.org.  Most of the pages have
them.  There pages in gnu.org where these are missing -- those are
bugs and they ought to be fixed.

They items are not actually present in the page source; rather, they are
copied in using 

<!--#include virtual="/server/banner.html" -->

Please preserve that command when you update the Emacs web pages.
